This is strange. I tested PharoLauncher 3.0.1 on Windows 10 and had no problems. Did you try to uninstall the previous launcher first? Do you have more information that could help finding the problem? Thanks, Christophe

Hi Christophe.

Is PL still broken? The PL download page still shows version 3.0.1, which does not open for me on Windows. Did you test the latest build successfully on Windows?

--- PL 3.0.1 is still failing to open on Windows. The VM instance appears in TaskMan.

Yes, I did the uninstall. And I just did the uninstall and reinstall again.

Do you have more information that could help finding the problem?

No, just an ordinary event log:

Windows Installer installed the product. Product Name: PharoLauncher. Product Version: 3.0.1. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: Pharo project. Installation success or error status: 0.

Is everyone else able to open PL 3.0.1 on Windows?

I installed it on two machines. On one it worked, and on the other it didn’t. On the one where it didn’t work, the SDL2.dll file didn’t get installed. After adding the file, it opened. I’m guessing that the virus scanner may be getting in the way. John Brant

Do we understand why the PL 3.0.1 GUI doesn’t open sometimes even when SDL2.dll is present? I have in my PharoLauncher folder 74 items. One of those is the images folder. Is that as it should be? … Hi. Christophe. Should the PL 3.0.1 installer produce a \PharoLancher install folder containing 74 items, of which one is the \images folder? If there is a file/folder list discrepancy, we can start the debugging there. Shaping
